Rhadamanthus Nice, that just made me love The Meathook Massacre even more. Thanks!

Yes, this will work, you just have to be specific about what order the triggers are being put onto the stack.

When multiple triggered abilities (start with "when/whenever/at") are trying to go onto the stack at the same time, first the active player (the player whose turn it is) puts their triggers onto the stack in the order of their choice, then the next player in turn order puts their triggers onto the stack on top of those, and so on around the table. In this example you can order your triggers such that the triggered ability granted by Feign Death is on top of the stack and resolves first, so Ob Nixilis, Captive Kingpin will be back on the battlefield when The Meathook Massacre's triggers start resolving.

This answer and explanation assume you control both Ob Nixilis and the Massacre. If you're in a game with more than 2 players and different players control Ob Nixilis and Massacre then the exact result will depend on whose turn it is and who goes after who in turn order. You can use the procedure explained above for how to put triggers on the stack to figure out what happens.

I’m assuming Ob wouldn’t trigger multiple times in this scenario since he’d technically already be dead once The Meathook Massacre resolves, but I figured I’d ask anyway. I was just thinking about it and wondered Maybe Feign Death could get him to trigger for each of my other creatures dying? Thanks for the clarification

Sheoldred, the Apocalypse - Offsets commander lifeloss, great against blue/draw decks. Deathtouch is nice. Synergy with Peer into the Abyss (which also goes well with underworld dreams).

MAYBE Heartstone? - I'm unsure if this works with your commander only if he's a creature or even if he's just an enchantment.

Cabal Coffers - Ramp. Cabal Stronghold is more budget.

Deserted Temple - Untap coffers + politics

MAYBE Rings of Brighthearth - Copy commander ability without paying life. Also Coffers + Deserted temple + rings = . Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth - Makes you need less swamps but is not budget (or needed, but helpful).

Imp's Mischief - "Counter" counterspells while redirecting targeted removal, extra turns and draw.

Necropotence - Draw

I am unsure what your wincon is, beatdown? You lose a lot of life with your commander's ability. Perhaps a The Meathook Massacre could help as a wipe + lifegain effect?

Diabolic Tutor/Beseech the Queen/Beseech the Mirror. Tutors are black's biggest strength, utilize it for consistency.

Alhammarret's Archive - Extra draw

Black's 3rd biggest strength is massive mana. Aside from coffers, Crypt Ghast, Nirkana Revenant, Caged Sun, Gauntlet of Power

Once you determine your wincon, you can start to mold the deck to achieving that goal.

EDIT: Removed the non-budget options

Is instant speed reanimation important to you?

Regarding Scion of Draco's lifelink, Whip of Erebos is another alternative should you be concerned about life. Either seems to work. I like whip a bit more since it can bring back your creatures but I understand your concern for cutting too many high costed creatures to feed your commander.

If archon works for you, then it works. I'm personally not a huge fan but you know your deck's needs best. Hopefully exsanguinate can mitigate some of your lifeloss. For lifegain, not an entirely serious suggestion but The Meathook Massacre might be worth considering as well since it acts as a wipe.

Regarding Voidwalker, given the mill deck I see your point. I like opposition agent simply because it can trigger on fetchlands which are prevalent in my meta and 3+ color decks. I would say see how these changes play out first and then tweak more as you need.

TBH, I'm surprised you added both exsanguinate and torment of hailfire. In my mono black deck that focuses on huge ramp, I only run one (although I've been reconsidering potentially adding the other). You could probably take out torment (since you want the lifegain of exsanguinate) and swap in something else.

Massacre Girl's playing dead

Hey y'all! I'm trying to make a janky Massacre girl kill'em'all EDH deck happen for a while. Could you please comment on it? I'm trying to keep it budget-ish, except for the cards that are included in the theme (both Massacre Girl and Massacre Girl, Known Killer, and also The Meathook Massacre are quite expensive nowadays.) Other than that, I hope you enjoy it!


@Entari0, your deck is wild! I don't even know how to improve it to be fair, however... have you seen the new card Undergrowth Recon to be released in MKM? I think it could be a really strong addition for recursion and redundancy.

I'll coment it in the deck page as well.

Budget per card? Meta? Anything you feel you want to add to your deck or is lacking?

Phyrexian Arena > Dark tutelage. I get that you want to lose more life to trigger your commander's ability, but you already have so much redundancy. Rather than adding to that redundancy, it would be better to more cheaply draw while you set up your commander in the early game. While your avg CMC is low enough that this isn't a huge deal, every bit helps.

The Meathook Massacre - Removal and lifegain in 1

Some flexibility in your mana base might suit you well, budget dependent. Let me know if you're interested in the that route.

Given that your commander is the linchpin of the deck, you need more ways to protect (and recur it). Imp's Mischief - It redirects targeted removal, draw, extra turns and can "counter" counterspells. All while losing life as desired.

Grim Tutor - Solid tutor with lifeloss for commander

Toxic Deluge - Surprised this isn't in here already. 1) Boardwipe, 2) Specific lifeloss 3) Synergy with profane transfusion

Last Laugh Thanks for the suggestions! All those cards have great effects, but generally I prefer to play my effects on creatures in this deck so I can cast them off Food Chain, find them with my creature tutors, and cheat them in with things like Birthing Pod and Defense of the Heart.

Impact Tremors was cut from this deck for Zulaport Cutthroat when it was first printed for this reason, much more synergistic as a creature and generally paints a much smaller target on your head. I'll likely cut either artist or cutthroat once I finally pickup a copy of The Meathook Massacre. Similar story with Bastion of Remembrance, plus making off-color tokens is a pet peeve of mine.

Scepter of Celebration is new to me but seems like a great card, I certainly wouldn't cut Avenger of Zendikar from this deck for almost any reason but it could be a good budget replacement for something like Awakening Zone or a token doubler, but I don't know it makes the cut because I almost never have 3 extra mana after casting prossh to equip and it doesn't do much equipped anywhere else. Plus off color tokens again, silly citizens.

Thanks again, I'll give your deck a look!
